I bought my first one in the late 1970s. Got the deluxe walnut version and it was finely accurate but had some feeding issues. I was young and dumb and traded it off. Have had a couple since then, but bought one from a buddy for $65 ten years ago. Again the walnut deluxe version.
This one is also a shooter, but it had seen some hard days with a previous owner. Looks a bit beat up, but I'm OK with that. So do I...
I got an old weaver K2.5 on it and it is as accurate and handy a rifle as a guy could ask for. Thought about fixing it up some. new stock and stuff. But it's almost perfect the way it is...
